Optimizing Comfort with Seating Design

Annie Thelen • Aug 01, 2024

The first - and arguably, most important - aspect of any seating is comfort. If the chairs are more uncomfortable than just standing would be, then there’s no point in them being there.


Spectator seating design focuses on all kinds of aspects, from durability to longevity. But even with all these considerations, comfort remains a top priority. Interkal is proud to be at the forefront of the latest technology to make spectator seating as great as it can be.

How Interkal Puts Comfort First

Interkal has plenty of seating options to consider. No matter which one you take a seat in, you can feel just how important comfort is to us. 


The ODYSSEY Auditorium Chair is the seat this is most evident in; it's the latest evolution in spectator seating. The chair features 2” thick back foam and 3” thick pan foam, contoured to fit anyone perfectly. For auditoriums, the ODYSSEY can’t be beaten.


When it comes to outdoor venues, the VISION Fixed Chair is made to accommodate everyone. The seat pan width is maintained from front to back, so no matter what size and shape guests are, they’ll be comfortable and happy in their seat. The AURA Stadium Chair follows suit, being designed for ergonomic comfort and available in up to a 23” seat width for plenty of space.


The POLARIS Multi-Purpose Seat is a combination of both bench and chair, for flexibility while still maintaining top tier comfort. Perfect for VIP sections, the POLARIS can be customized with armrests, cupholders or our ComfoBack Automatic Backrest System to elevate the experience even more for your guests. But even with just the bench seat, you’ll be able to feel how the molded component offers unsurpassed comfort.


Comfort Never Goes Out of Style

Everyone appreciates a good chair when they take their seats. That’s why it’s important to us — because it’s important to spectators. They might not talk about how comfortable the chairs were when they tell others about the event, but they remember a good overall experience. And seating is part of that.


Comfortable seating only adds to the stellar event that you’re hosting. Getting it right can mean the difference between a good time and a great one.


When it comes to design, Interkal offers the best for comfort. Along with that, strength, longevity, and style all come with any of our seating options. No matter which seats you choose for your facility, you can be assured that with Interkal, comfort won’t be an issue.

There’s nothing quite like a well-designed space for your spectators to enjoy when they attend your event. With the right look, your spectators will be treated to a memorable venue and be excited to come back to your facility. Color is one way to customize your telescopic bleachers and spectator seating for your venue. Using either a single color or multiple, there are plenty of ways to get creative with your space and create something truly special for your spectators.

You’re probably not thinking about benches when thinking about the most comfortable seat you’ve ever sat on. And it’s true! Bench seating is not likely to feel as though you’re sitting on a fluffy cloud. However, that doesn’t mean you have to accept discomfort. With Interkal’s options for benches, comfort is already built in. Using intuitive engineering and design, benches don’t have to be a downside when guests come to your venue. They can keep your spectators just as comfortable when they take a seat at your event.

What do you want your guests to experience when they visit your facility? Excitement, joy, awe? There are plenty of factors that contribute to the overall experience that your visitors will have when they take their seats. From the design of the space to the event they’ll watch, there are tons of ways to cater to your audience to make them come back. But to make an event truly memorable, everything needs to be just right. Even the smallest factors need to be taken into consideration to create something truly memorable for your spectators. And that includes the chair they’ll be seated on for their visit.
